Space Prisoner 1.4

Space Prisoner 1.4
Work on Space Prisoner has ceased.
However, I will continue to update the high score list as scores come in.

Thanks to a bug report from Doug Walters, I've managed to track down a bug which caused slowdowns during explosion sequences on machines without dedicated graphics cards.

As a result, the next version of Space Prisoner (1.4) will have significant performance gains for all machines. This gain will only be noticeable if you have the slower, shared graphics memory scheme that is present on most MacBooks. It's only the very latest MacBooks (introduced a couple of months ago) which finally have dedicated graphics cards built-in. (The MacBook Pro always had them).

I'll be releasing Space Prisoner 1.4 soon, after I've finished a few more refinements and some more playtesting.
